Samson 040611432 Picatinny Side Folding Stock Adapter FDE

The Samson 040611432 Picatinny Side Folding Stock Adapter transforms fixed-stock firearms into compact, foldable platforms without compromising structural integrity. This adapter enables shooters to reduce overall weapon length by approximately 8-10 inches when folded, making transport and storage significantly more manageable in tight spaces.

What Makes This Different

Unlike basic hinge mechanisms that introduce flex or wobble, this adapter features a robust locking system that maintains zero play when deployed. The precision-machined aluminum construction provides the same rigidity as a fixed stock connection while adding folding capability. Spring-loaded detents ensure positive lock-up in both folded and extended positions, eliminating the loose tolerances common in budget alternatives.

Key Features

• Machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction for maximum strength-to-weight ratio
• Picatinny rail interface ensures compatibility with most AR-platform receivers
• Flat Dark Earth Type III hard anodized finish resists wear and corrosion
• Ambidextrous release mechanism allows operation from either side
• Low-profile design adds minimal bulk when folded
• Spring-loaded detent system provides secure lockup without tools
• Compatible with most aftermarket stocks and braces

Field performance remains consistent whether the stock is deployed or recently folded. The adapter maintains zero retention during repeated folding cycles, making it suitable for patrol vehicles, aircraft deployment, or confined spaces where maneuverability matters. The hard anodized finish withstands repeated handling and environmental exposure without showing wear patterns that compromise the locking mechanism.
